Goermans-Taskin

This double-manual harpsichord was a Flemish instrument that Pascal Taskin transformed (ca. 1783) into a great French harspichord. Its bright and sonorous voice makes it particularly suitable for a wide repertoire and for large concert halls.

Taskin 1769

The original instrument was built by Pascal Taskin in 1769. This double-manual harpsichord gives a rounded, typically French sound of rare elegance, with deep low tones.

Zell 1728

This double-manual German harpsichord is based upon the famous Hamburg instrument made by Christian Zell in 1728. Its musical elegance and refined look conjure the memory of J.S. Bach and the great German harpsichord tradition.

Guisti 1679

Modeled after an instrument built by Giovan Battista Guisti in 1679, the sound of this cembalo is wide and round-unusual for an Italian instrument. This makes it particularly suitable for a wide solo repertoire and for the "basso continuo."

Cristofori 1722

Bartolomeo Cristofori, inventor of the Pianoforte, built the model for this harpsichord in Leipzig in 1722. It has a cypress soundboard that gives a particularly typical Italian sound. Ideal for the XVII century solo repertoire and for the most demanding performers.

Cembalo Primo

Designed according to Italian XVII Century principles especially for students and music schools. Also popular as a "continuo" instrument and for Baroque ensembles, due to its full sound and small size and weight.

Cembalo Studio

This instrument is modeled after the dimensions and performance characteristics of the Guisti 1679.

Scuola

A single-manual French harpsichord, which is available in models after the Goerman-Taskin and the Taskin 1769.

Goujon 1753

This spinet has a gracious shape and a sweet and round sonority that gives it a "virginal" sound. Ideal for ensemble music and for students devoted to study of the harpsichord.
